Contrary to spreading speculation on social media, a red van photographed in the parking lot of Manchester Crossroads is not involved in a child abduction ring or related to unconfirmed reports of two suspicious men in the area, police said in a statement Saturday afternoon.

The statement posted on the Northern York County Regional Police Department Facebook page came after a woman’s story about two suspicious men watching her and her daughter at a local store began circulating on Facebook earlier this week. As of Saturday afternoon, the post had more than 3,500 shares. It has since been deleted.
